        When I run the python script relayPIR.py, the relay clicks and the green light turns on, but once I end that script, the light doesn’t come back on

          hmm… I will check this tomorrow and will give a result

          Installed a fresh Raspbian Stretch Desktop and just created the relayPIR.py which runs perfectly. can start and stop whenever i want the script and even autostart on reboot works great.

          Hmm… so we used several options and nothing seems to work… You should delete all things we made and start again.

          Maybe just try to create the relay script on point 5.2

            So I deleted everything and started over. Followed your instructions from point 5.2 and it’s still not working. Really not sure where to go from here
